If it is an apprenticeship where his employer pays him a salary it should be treated as he is in employment and no your husband should no longer be paying maintenance.

In addition to the above the employer will probably be paying college fees and your step son will not be entitled to a bursary or student loan.

If the boy is being paid by his employer to go to college and getting a wage then CS should stop.Make sure that the PWC is not receiving Child Benefit has CM is still payable from the NRP to the PWC while it is still claimed.Ring the Child Benefit office or if they refuse to speak with you ring the CSA and get them to confirm that the PWC has ceased collecting.

There are different types of apprenticeships.
Some are ‘approved’ and still count as ‘education’ rather than ‘employment’ so child benefit and CSA would still be payable.

My daughter will be starting a hairdressing apprenticeship, one day a week at college then the rest of the week in a hairdressing salon, she will be sixteen on august the 23rd this year, will my ex have to pay anything at all when she turns sixteen and starts college.
